Quotes

 * Todo se ha escrito, todo se ha dicho, todo se ha hecho, oyó Dios que le decían y aún no había creado el mundo, todavía no había nada. También eso ya me lo han dicho, repuso quizá desde la vieja, hendida Nada. Y comenzó.
 * translation:
 * Everything has been written, everything has been said, everything has been made: that's what God heard before creating the world, when there was nothing yet. I have also heard that one, he may have answered from the old, split Nothingness. And then he began.
 * 1967, Museo de la novela de la Eterna (The Museum of Eterna's Novel), also quoted in Chambers Dictionary of Quotations, p. 321 (2005)
